Name that Tune
🌟 Girls Day Out at Delta College! 🌟

On Friday, 45 Freeland Middle School girls spent the day exploring the world of STEM at Girls Day Out, sponsored by Delta College! 💡

From welding and foundry work to 3D printing, designing their own nail polish color, building electric circuits, and even creating a working stethoscope — our students got hands-on with exciting, real-world experiences. 🔧🩺🎨

These activities sparked curiosity and showed just how many amazing STEM career paths are waiting for them in the future. 💪✨

It was an inspiring, educational, and FUN day all around! 😃💚

🌎 Ms. Heckman's 8th Grade Science classes spent the day measuring surface temperature of different locations on Earth using a model. Models are a great way to demonstrate what happens on Earth on a smaller scale.

It was a great day for science! 👨‍🔬👩‍🔬

🎭✨Freeland Performing Arts presents String the Musical ✨🎭

This November, our 7-12th graders are thrilled to bring you String — a heartfelt and hilarious new musical by Adam Gwon!

Who you gonna call... for a ref?! 📞👻

Things got wild in Mrs. Gotts' PE class when Slimer showed up for a game of volleyball... as the BALL!

The students had a blast getting their fitness in with our special green guest. He's a little unpredictable on the court, but 10/10 for Halloween fun! 🎃💚
